Welcome to day 3 of your seven day journey! I hope you have enjoyed the last few days. Today we will discuss how to take action on the decisions we have made.
Lesson 3
Let me ask you a question….
Have you ever had an idea that you thought would be great, maybe even help someone, make a product better, or just simply add value to your life? Why did it not get done? You can try and blame it on lack of money or lack of time; it is simply LACK OF ACTION.
As of today, you are a person of action ready to create a new future by creating a new you. No longer dwelling in the past or moaning over lost opportunities. You can do nothing about the past. Your future is now! It is time to grasp it with both hands and take action!
When faced with the choice of doing nothing or doing something. You must ALWAYS choose to ACT! You do not have the ability to make the right decision, but you do have the ability to make a decision and then make it right!
If a person is not willing to work, he or she can find endless excuses to avoid it. But laziness is more dangerous than a lion. The less you the do, the less you want to do, and the more useless you become. To overcome laziness, take a few small steps towards change. Today you will take action.
1. Set a concrete, realistic goal.
2. Figure out the steps needed to reach the goal
3. Follow the steps- TAKE ACTION
2. Figure out the steps needed to reach the goal

Exercise:
Think about how taking a small action today can change your results immediately. Over the past few lessons we have learned to change our thoughts in order to change our decisions. Today we will take actions on our new decisions. Today you will set and achieve your goal.
Contact 1 or more people that have made a difference in your life and let them know how much you appreciated their actions. This will result in a win-win situation for you and the person you contacted. Your deadline for doing this will be by the end of today.
Below you will write the name of the person you are contacting and how they made a difference in your life. (This may be a co-worker, old friend, family member, or someone you just met yesterday.)
